Live out ROTA Housekeeper Job in Notting Hill, West London
A UHNW family is looking to hire 3 Housekeepers to join their household team. The family of 6 consists of the parents and their 4 children aged between 6 and 11 years old. It is a formally run, multiple-staffed household, but the family is relatively informal; however, there is a uniform to be worn by the staff members. The household team currently consists of a House Manager, 2 Housekeepers, a Wardrobe Manager, 2 Chefs, and a Nanny. Their beautiful, high-spec home has wooden parquet floors throughout, rugs, marble in the bathrooms, and quite a lot of glass. The home is furnished with very high-end pieces of furniture. Their main house is over 5 floors and has a lift (which can be used by staff for taking up or down laundry, hoover, etc.), an indoor pool, a music room, a cinema room, a game room, a bar with a large bathroom, a downstairs kitchen for heavy cooking, and a kitchen/lounge area for lighter cooking. There is a staff quarter, where you can take your breaks, which offers a kitchen, lounge and loos, and this area has a separate entrance. In addition, there is a 2-bedroom guest mews house at the back. The grandparents and other family members/friends will visit and stay in their mews house. They do not plan to have formal parties, and if they do, they will not be often, mostly just family gatherings. They are looking for someone hardworking, flexible, professional, polite, who is a good team player and is looking for a long-term role.
